I finally watched it
a few weeks back
So, what you thought of it?
I hope you're ready for this
alright
*here we go*
Lol
Some parts of it were good.
Some parts of it were not good.
now I'm just going to keep typing here so it looks like I'm typing something massive even though I'm not but it reinforces this lame joke that I've set up for myself and now I have to go through with it, even though it'd make more sense for me to write something about the movie here if I'm going to bother writing something here at all but whatever I think this is enough crap in order to get the joke across I mean I could've just asdfasdfasdfasdf for the whole thing that would've been easier but woop-de-fucking-do
....
I thought a review of the movie were coming
Oh God
*m i s s i o n a c c o m p l i s h e d*
Some parts I was willing to suspend disbelief for, 'because Star Wars'
Some parts I still facepalmed at
I think they overdid the 'big evil Empire v tiny rebels' narrative by giving the Empire a ship about ten times larger than the Super Star Destroyer and reducing the rebels to basically just one Cruiser and a Frigrate
I thought they improved Rey's character by making her less Mary Sue-ey
And the callback to Luke telling her she 'knows nothing' because she thinks the force is about 'moving rocks', where near the end of the film she literally has to move rocks to help people, that was nice
I thought Kylo's character was improved, and I liked the dynamic they established between Kylo and Rey
A lot of people were upset about how the handled Luke. I can understand why, but I also thought it was interesting to see his character being portrayed in such a 'broken' fashion
The Yoda bit was definitely a bit "wtf"-y
I just don't think it's as terrible as some people are now proclaiming it to be
Too much spoilers dude
So, it's a decent movie?
It's a reverse Phantom Menace in my mind
well, not to say that it's an amazing movie
Just that when Phantom Menace came out
Everyone was like YEAH NEW STAR WARS THIS FUKKIN ***ROXXX***
And then after a bit, people were like "heyyyyyyy wait a minute.."
Hmmm
Now because of this asinine politicization of *e v e r y t h i n g*
I guess I will watch it later today
I'm off to bed now
It's nearly impossible to watch anything, including a Star Wars film, without that having an effect on your interpretation
Welp, 'night
There's a lot of dumb things in the movie, don't get me wrong
But perhaps it didn't bother me as much because I was pretty much expecting that from a Star Wars film
I just see people critiquing the most miniscule of issues in the film and blowing them up to be 'movie-breaking'
This guy has to be LARPing
It's just too difficult to believe someone this dumb has managed to live this long
This is a bit MGTOWy to say the least
